PDF to Quiz
PDF to quiz: upload the lecture handout your professor posted and get an exam-style quiz written from its slides.
Each question is worded so you can’t answer it by recognition.

- The lecture PDF uploads and Dr. Synapse starts writing practice questions, counting them as they are written.
- The practice exam is ready: 10 questions from the lecture PDF, with an Open Exam button.
- A question from the exam: “A 29-year-old woman with asthma is switched from an albuterol pMDI with a spacer to a fluticasone-salmeterol dry powder inhaler. Which…”
- An answer is chosen and Show Answer marks it: D, “Breathe in quickly and deeply through the mouthpiece”, is correct.
- The explanation opens with the lecture PDF slide the question came from, and why each other option is wrong.
- End card: “Highlight less, answer more”, an Upload now button, and “3 free credits · no card needed”.

Rereading the PDF until it feels familiar doesn’t count: with the answers in front of you, you never practice bringing them to mind on your own.
Practicing with new questions helps you apply what you’ve learned.

Every option explained
The explanation names the correct answer, then why each wrong option is wrong.
The slide it came from is on every question, so you know exactly where the information is.

Only what your course expects you to know
Question banks are good, but they’re built for everyone.
These questions come from your own lecture, focused on what’s most likely to show up on your exam.
How it works
Upload one lecture as a PDF or PowerPoint.
The system is three simple steps you do for every one of your lectures:
- Understand the why behind the information: the Story
- Memorize with active recall: the Anki deck
- Apply it to real exam questions: the practice exam
